VDI trade conference: Plastics in the medical technology

The VDI trade conference addresses itself to experts, who are concerned with the production and processing of plastics for medical products. Of importance the conference is in addition for machine-builders, planning engineers, designers and persons, who would like themselves to provide an overview of uses of plastics in the medical technology. Far more than half of all medicine products manufactured world-wide consists meanwhile of plastic. At the same time however the requirements and expectations are very high in an industry coined/shaped by security as the medical technology: Those of the manufacturer to its processing plant, those of the processing plant to its raw material suppliers and not least those of the patient to the product. The consequences and perspectives, which result from it at the development and the production of medicine product, stand from there in the center of the conference of this year. On the technical side the conference dedicates itself to the sterilisation and the manufacturing in the pure area. Possibilities of integrated automation and modern tool tools are likewise discussed like follow-up processes like a welding or a packing under pure space conditions. Several university institutes present current research results to uses of plastic shaped parts and textile groups particularly within the range of the Implantologie. The VDI conference � plastics in the medical technology � is an established Branchentreff also over 160 participants and brings together for many years the participants from all ranges of the plastic and medical technology made of Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Organizer is the VDI knowledge forum. The conference takes place under technical working group of the VDI specialist areas plastics engineering and medical technology. �
